Mohammed, of Clarkson Street, Ravensthorpe, and his family organised a run or walk from their home to the Forget Me Not Trust in Huddersfield. So far over £4,000 has been raised for the Forget Me Not Trust and Martin House Hospice, in memory of Arslan.

Mohammed said: “It was absolutely brilliant. There were over 40 people running or walking - including boxer Harris Akbar, the Commonwealth Champion, who showed his support along with a number of other boxers .

“The Purge boxing academy in Batley sorted all the boxers out for the event - they have been brilliant.

“To everyone who came and showed their support, I would like to say a massive thank you. We have a target of £100,000 over the next 12 months for the charities, both of which do absolutely wonderful, wonderful work.”
